And the KimYe love story continues...

Some people are counting down to their seperation. Meanwhile, Hollywood Life source concludes that ''they’re bonded,” and that “they’re just enjoying each other’s time, that he’s spoiling the sh-t out of her. He [lavishes] her with clothes and jewelry, and he doesn’t even have to. He just wants her to feel appreciated and wants her to know how much he’s digging her.”





If he like her that much, how about he putting a ring on it abi?

Jane Smith Writes against Obama

Jane Pitt unlike her son and daughter in-law –to-be Angelina Jolie doesn't support liberal sensibilities and that has been made clear in a letter printed in The Springfield News-Leader.

She urged her fellow Christians to vote for the President's Republican rival Mitt Romney in November; Mrs. Pitt calls Obama "a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage".

She insists Obama is the wrong man to be running the country, adding, "I think any Christian should spend much time in prayer before refusing to vote for a family man with high morals, business experience, who is against abortion, and shares Christian conviction concerning homosexuality just because he is Mormon."
"Anyone who does not vote or writes in a name is casting a vote for Romney’s opponent, Barack Hussein Obama - a man who sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for years and did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer."

Her stance comes just a few months after her son opened up about his support for Obama in a candid cover story for The Hollywood Reporter.

An editor's note reads: "The News-Leader has verified the letter writer is the mother of actor Brad Pitt and local businessman Doug Pitt."
Newspaper editors have confirmed the letter to the News-Leader was written by the movie star's mother.

The question is do you agree with her?

NYSC Redeploys Corps Members From Troubled State!

Parents and several stakeholders, including the House of Representatives, have kicked vehemently against posting Youth Corps Members to states that have been prone to security threats.
 

Prospective Corps Members, who were posted to Bauchi, Gombe, Plateau, Kano and Kaduna States and are yet to report to their camps, have now been directed to report immediately to the NYSC Directorate headquarters in Abuja for redeployment. CMs posted to Yobe and Borno States would also now carry out their orientation exercise at the NYSC camps in Nasarawa and Benue States respectively.

In a statement signed by NYSC's Director General, Brig. Gen. Nnamdi Okore-Affia, the NYSC reminded Yobe and Borno CMs that their orientation dates remain July 26, 2012 and August 16, 2012 as earlier announced. Although the statement did not clarify if the CMs would go back to Yobe and Borno for their primary assignments after the orientation exercise,

“Yobe State prospective corps members will now hold their orientation course at the Nasarawa State NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp, Keffi, Keffi LGA, and not as stated in their call-up letters. Borno State prospective corps members will undertake their orientation programme at the Benue State NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp at Wanume, Tarka LGA, and not as stated in their call-up letters,” the statement said.
